There was a taunting silence as I was given a chair close to him, I looked cold and unbothered,but my insides felt like a roller coaster, the feeling was something more than fear,it was more like respect and curiosity, he had an aura that couldn't go unnoticed in a room of strong gods
“Does the food not delight you” He said as his deep voice echoed,I clutched to my fork as I suddenly recalled that I should be eating. I stole glances of his extremely handsome face as his striking deep blue eyes seemed deeper than an ocean, it was nothing like Damian’s light blue ones, those haunting eyes still gave her nightmares “Stop staring” His deep voice rang into my ear as my face suddenly burned and turned red,I could feel the servants eyes meet stare awkwardly into my soul and the food suddenly tasted bland “I heard that you were specifically visited by an alpha” If the hall wasn't pin drop silent before,now it was,the servants quickly lowered their heads as I stared in shock with how fast he found out, then I remembered that I was followed by an inmate, and that probably wasn't the only spy that might have followed them ,his face was cold and unbothered as usual, as he didn't even spare me a glance “I see you love staring” He hummed as I looked down again “It was an unplanned and unexpected encounter,it must have slipped my mind” I said, my voice was steady and sure,unlike my head “Unexpected….mmm” He said and hummed again as if nitpicking my words “You can leave” He said as all the servants gave a small bow and nodded in dismissal Kloss's POV I saw her heat up at the mention of Damien,and my suspicions were aligning slowly,I knew she had stayed in his chambers and she had been maltreated by his older sister,but there were little to no rumors that she had an affair with him, in fact it was said that when they had an opportunity to meet she had ran off “Take” I kept a small red box tied with a black bow on the table and watched as she stared curiously at it “Your majesty…..” Her eyes scanned the box and a sudden feeling of alertness that always hovered around her eyes suddenly became stronger,it was like she was monitoring her environment while keeping a calm font,her alertness was something that an ordinary maid could possess “I couldn't possibly accept this” She said as a matter of fact as her face features immediately turned sharp Smiling I took the box off the table as I slowly opened it while monitoring her body movements, her hands moved ever so slightly to her sword as her eyes focused purely on me Pulling out a ruby necklace, I saw her eyes widen in shock as I placed it delicately in my palm. When I heard that she was attracted to this,I knew for a fact that it was important,so I sent for it immediately,but when I heard the meaning, I was confused,what possibly would attract this mysterious girl to a piece of superstition “The twilight love pendant” She repeated as her face was full with shock as I let out a small smirk, I never knew she could be cute “How did you know…” She asked in astonishment “There is nothing special about it's carvings” I said with a frown, it was a normal ruby that was cut in a heart shape, nothing out of the ordinary, I saw her frown too like she was just realizing the same thing, it was just too expensive for something so ordinary “I would immediately refund the money to my majesty” She said as she gave a small bow to me “Keep it,it was a present anyway” I said as I dropped it on the table and walked away leaving her perplexed and shocked at the present The maid helped me button up my robe as she tried not to stare at my chest “You can leave” I soas coldly and didn't even spare her a glance “Call Xavier” I said as she hurried off immediately Tapping my hands on the table in front of me,my eyes stared into nothing as I remembered how alert she was,it was contradicting her story and his research “You called sir” I heard a deep and quiet voice behind me as I turned to face him “How sure are you of your information on Shelia?” I asked immediately as I threw him off guard, this was the first time in decades that I have questioned his research and investigations Immediately he frowned his face knowing that for me to question it,I had a strong hunch “Sir… I am almost certain that her background and whereabouts for the past 20 years are at my palm” He said making me frown even more, something was off,and that was the answer to all his suspicions “Investigate her again,and this time leave no stone unturned” I said as my eyes shone in the dark “Yes your majesty” Giving a small bow again he hurried off into the dead night Shelia’s POV Looking at the ruby pendant for the hundredth time,I couldn't decipher on what was so special about it,my long blond hair was packed in a messy bun as my silver eyes reflected the moon, my eyes as I was told by Damien was the mirror reflecting the heart,and I had a good heart and a clear eyes…not anymore,it was full of anger and desperation,sorrow and unfiltered raw courage my room was on one of the top floors of the castle, grabbing my sword I shifted a few feet back as I looked up at the moon ‘1…2…3’ I murmured as I immediately jumped the building making a huge thud on the floor, I had too much to do than look pretty in the palace “Stop right this instance..."Rated *I froze as I heard the howling and footsteps behind me,there would be no excuse to why I had to jump down and by this ungodly time off the night,but it was urgent“Don't move”“The hounds are released this early?”The question immediately snapped me out of my trance The hounds….they weren't talking to me ,but I still had to be more carefulI knew that I couldn't transform into my wolf form because of how I'll end up,so I immediately started hatching another plan to escape from this magnificent and large castle.I had already learnt some of the castle route previously,so I knew some parts with the lesser guards,the only problem would be the werewolf's on patrolImmediately I went into stealth mode as I hid in the shadows and began to move quietly through the dark…this might be risky,but the only person that had the information worth risking my life for was finally tracked downAnd I won't let t
Shelia's POVI tripped again as a huge bruise formed on my ankle, dragging myself up I heaved a sigh of frustration as my ankle felt suddenly numb.In her past life,she and Penelope were friends by circumstance, but Penelope was part of the rouge wolf that Stella sold off to clubs, she was bought by a wealthy zeta wolf,who had fought in many battles but his back had never touched the ground,he was greedy and always taking advantage of young females, bringing them to clubs to be abused by other disgusting males, but the castle couldn't do anything about it, because if how strong in battle he was and because of this she developed a strong hatred towards the castle and everyone in it, except her.They weren't exactly close,but she helped Penelope one time,so she swore to repay the favor.I touched my ankle and a sharp pain shot through my wrist making me whince, I removed my hand immediately and my injury had healed.Standing outside a club,
Penelope's POV(Unedited Version)Running through the thick forest,I was fast enough to effortlessly dodge the thorns and branches,while chuckling like a manic, this was it,it was why I was born, to be part of the prophecyRunning fast into the unknown,her hair blonde flowed freely and was one with the air as she listened partially if she could hear footsteps behind her,and for a while it was quiet….seems like she was still messing with the Zeta, immediately light but fast footsteps could be heard in a distance,I smiled as I finally increased my pace,my deep blue eyes suddenly glowed my feet seemed to be barely touching the groundFrom the first time I saw Sheila at the castle, something in me knew that she was special,she was more different than the rest of us, she screamed magic,and seeing how curious enough she was to be hot on her tail she could guess that the first part of the prophecy had been fulfilled She didn't have to run, it w
‘knock knock’Standing beside the window,the soft knock brought me back to reality as I softly hummed an enter Female servants trooped into the room with a piece of clothing or jewelry in their hands as the butler walked in behind them, giving me a soft nod as a greeting he stared at my face as if noticing that something was offNot sleeping the whole night, killing multiple people and running into the thick forest must have taken a toll on me and made me weak,and pale physically.If this was my old life, I wouldn't have felt even the least bit tired,but the lack of energy was showing on my face in this life Deciding to ignore her pale and tired look the butler went ahead to pass on the information given to him “Milady, Master Kloss ordered you to dress up,you and him would be going out”The command was short and straight forward making me roll my eyes eternally “They would help you prepare”He said and
She could feel all eyes on them as numerous wolves tried to fathom what was going on, it was almost like they saw a ghost with how pale they went, especially the ladies, they were lucky that their eyes were connected to a socket or it would have rolled on the ground.For a while the music stopped as all the attention was on both of them…the king and his bride, then a beautiful lady with long silver hair and deep blue eyes approached them,her body slender and her legs long, she looked nothing short of a belleBut that's the thing with wolves,their appearance are deceiving, it was something that the wolves and vampires had in common almost other things, so she learnt not to judge by looks “Lord Kloss…” and said with a bow as her voice trailed off “The rumors are true…you are betrothed”She said with a soft genuine smile,which was rare, catching her off guard,but her appearance remained bland “Lady Sheila”He introduced as th
Kloss's POVI saw her eyes quiver as her breath hastened, her cheeks turned red as she tried to match the intensity of the gaze Her skin was paler than usual and she seemed tired, that was enough evidence that she was up the whole night She looked pretty, once more his choice came out perfect, when he saw her, he knew that she was special, she wasn't like any other creature that was born to die.She didn't know it yet, but she has this powerful aura emitting from her, there was something strange about her, something that shouldn't fall into bad hands.He couldn't say that he didn't want her to fall into the wrong hands, because his hands aren't right either..he wanted her to fall into a secure hand, a protective hand.The only way for that to happen was to be betrothed to her….it was an opportunity he didn't want to let go of “You have really pretty eyes”I said leaning closer to her face, I could hear her h
Cortia’s face turned as red as a tomato as she tried to shy away “Pardon me for not informing you on my betrothal”He said to the utter shock of the Owis “But my bride wanted to keep it as silent as possible”He said, throwing me in the conversation and not just gaining the attention of the Owis,but of the entire ballroom making me the center of attention Cortia's face fell as her mood darkened by a few shades,it looked like she was just deprived of her right to breathe as the whole hall turned in our direction.She always liked being the center of attention,but that was because she was always praised for her beauty or her outfit, not because of some unknown girl trying to steal her dream man There were numerous eligible suitors matching in and out of the mansion daily to ask for her hand in marriage, but for some reason she couldn't get her heart off the king, he was a very handsome man, and his looks surpasses most
“....I am grateful for your presence your majesty and thank you…your grace”Lady Owis said with a humble smile, but I froze ‘your grace..’That term is to be used for royalty My smile turned soft as she held my hands “Your mother would be so proud of you Kloss…as proud as I am”She said and gave a small bow “Happy birthday Lady Owis”Kloss soas breaking the silence,his deep voice suddenly sounding more quiet than it has ever sounded “It indeed is….safe travels”She said as she watched us enter into the carriage The carriage moved silently across the two towns,with the moonlight shining brightly below, with the stars thinking above the leafs, making the night look enchanting “Stop us here”Kloss said as the carriage immediately halted “Your majesty…*“You can go back to the palace…we'll arrive there ourselves”He said as a matter of f
